Prologue April 6, 1991
"I will see you whenever I get home from the meeting." Lucius Malfoy called over his shoulder as he walked out of the front door, with Draco at his heels. Narcissa sighed, Draco was too young for this, but Lucius insisted that it would give the boy a backbone that was long overdue. Narcissa looked out the window to make sure that they were really gone, took out her wand and pointed down at her belly, and with a flick of her wrist, removed the charm that had helped her conceal her nine month pregnant body. Yes the baby was Lucius's and it was a good thing during the months that Lucius was too busy with Draco and being school governor, otherwise he would have noticed something. Not even the house elves knew. Except for Dobby, but he seemed to know everything that he shouldn't. Calling for Dobby to get her cloak and meet her in the Master Bedroom, Narcissa walked as fast as a nine month pregnant lady could to the Master Bedroom. Getting a few necessities, she waited a while for Dobby to get her cloak. Pulling out a golden locket, Narcissa opened it and stared at the picture of her sister Andromeda. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and Narcissa wasn't taking a chance with Bellatrix. She had secretly made contact with her sister, who she heard moved to the states and was asked the question that only a year ago she would have found absurd. Are you sure you want to place your child in the Muggle World Narcissa? Yes, with how things are, it would be too dangerous if she had the baby here. A million things could happen, Voldemort finding out… Merlin knows what he would want to do, Lucius turning him or oh Merlin what if it's a girl? What then would happen? Narcissa almost started to cry. The situation was bad, but she would make it better. Lucius wasn't the man that she had fallen in love with, he was a changed man and she wasn't sure if his old self would ever come back. Yes, this was the right decision.
Prologue April 10, 1991
Narcissa looked at the small bundle in her arms and smiled gently. Merlin was she beautiful! Somehow she knew that this was the right decision, coming to the Muggle World and having her child here. The door opened and her sister Andromeda walked in along with Ted and their older daughter Nymphadora who insisted on being called Tonks. Andromeda was expecting in December (A/N: it could happen!) When Narcissa first heard of Andromeda's news, she panicked. But Andromeda assured her that all was well and that it would be a joy watching Narcissa's child.
Andromeda sat down in a chair and leaned over to get a better look at her new niece. Tonks stood at the foot of the bed looking down at the bundle, her expression unreadable. Ted stared down lovingly. They had come to peaceful terms, once the entire situation was stated. Narcissa wasn't sure on Tonks but decided that she was being paranoid. Tonks was rarely home so she wouldn't pose a threat at all.
"Have you named her yet? Asked a curious Andromeda, her eyes sparkling with delight. Narcissa looked up at her sister and smiled.
"I know the name, but I was waiting for you."
"Oh how sweet, now sister dear tell me! I'm dying from curiosity!" the door opened again and a nurse came strolling in, clipboard in hand.
"Mrs. Malfoy, are you ready for the birth certificate?" Narcissa nodded. Quietly looking down at her daughter, she quietly said
"Her name is Estelle Victoria Malfoy, born on April 10, 1991 at 1: 27pm weighing 7 pounds and 3 ounces."
"Thank you Mrs. Malfoy, we'll give you the birth certificate before you leave." The nurse left leaving the four of them to their own thoughts for a few moments. Finally Ted spoke.
"Narcissa, news from England. It's getting bad and me and Andi are concerned that it wouldn't be safe for a long time for Estelle to go to England-" But was cut off when Andromeda butted in
"But we have a plan, we're willing to raise Estelle until she's old enough to decide what she wants to do with her life, or if the wizarding world in England suddenly becomes safe enough for her to live with you. You can visit when ever you want, but mind you, when she's old enough for school, she's going public. Are you sure that you want to leave her here with us." Her tone was serious and Narcissa looked into Andromeda's eyes.
"Andromeda, I am putting my daughter's life in your hands. I fully trust you that you will help her grow up to be a fine young lady that I know that she will become." Andromeda looked somewhat shocked. "Narcissa, aren't you going to visit? We can make up a good story that will cover you going from world to world. This child needs her real mother and that's you." She paused and held Narcissa's hand in hers. "We'll help you every step of the way to keep Estelle safe, I promise."
